Footprints In the Sand- Contest

CONTEST - Any Form #34 Sponsor: Poet Destroyer "Footprints In The Sand" One night I that had good I was the dream I walking Lord saw was dre on the across scenes for eam beach dark of my each ing with sky life scene I had noticed two sets of foot prints in the sand one belonging to me and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of my life shot before me I looked back at the footprints in the sand and to my surprise I noticed that many times along the path of my life there was only one set of footprints just when I needed Him. I looked up to the Lord and said "Why"? I could see this was during the worst times of my life. This bothered me so I looked at the Lord and I questioned Him about my dilemma, "My Lord, you told me that when I decided to follow that you would be with me along the way, but during the hardest times of my life, there was only one set of footprints When I needed You, You doubted me." The Lord said, "Dear Child, during your trials is when I carried you, I love you." Written By: Laura Urbaniak October 6, 2015

Laura, I love the Shape, and this is on my favorite poem list. I was going to place it high, however, I was not sure if this counts as an entry, being the words are not your original. Anyways, I enjoyed seeing and reading the beauty of love once again. Congrats on the win. Enjoy my newest blog "One More Thing" if you'd like. Always ~LINDA~

WOW, creative. This is one of my most favorite poets. As a matter of fact, this is the poem, that inspired me to write poetry at the age of 12. I'm going to fav this poem, not because it is a fav already. But, for the reason you brought the print and gave it shape. WUV LINDA
